For Uzuri, For Blauwdruk, For Everyone I Love - a Mix by Guus Christian

''We thought of life by analogy with a journey, a pilgrimage, which had a serious purpose at the end, and the thing was to get to that end, success or whatever it is, maybe heaven after you’re dead. But we missed the point the whole way along. It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played.'' 

First episode of Dancing In The Key of Life, on Open Source Radio.
